Just in time for Valentine's Day, Canadian singer-songwriter Leith Ross has released their latest heart-fluttering single, "(You) On My Arm." Accompanied by a stop motion lyric video Leith made themself, the track is a sweet ode to queer love and teases their highly anticipated upcoming album.
In "(You) On My Arm," Leith's spirited yet nuanced vocals captivate listeners as a blanket of organic, lush instrumentation further wraps us up and tucks us in. Their unfiltered lyrics paint a scene of wishing and longing with staccato guitar riffs and humming bass feeding into the anticipation. In the brilliant chorus, Leith declares, "I wanna be, I wanna buy you / Pretty little things and never ever lie to you / Watch you get dressed and compliment your taste /I'd be better armed if you agreed to take it" as subtle, glittering synths, warm guitar riffs, and percussion blend and further melt listeners' hearts.
"This song is about having a massive crush on someone, " shares the buzzing artist. "It happens, fortunately, and unfortunately. I hope it can help with any yearning you may feel the need to do. That's what it has done for me. I love being gay."
"(You) On My Arm" follows the successful release of their recent tracks "We'll Never Have Sex" and "Orlando," continuing to showcase Leith's ability to explore themes of gut-wrenching and young love, silliness, and extreme existentialism. Every song is crafted with care and thoughtfully made to examine the more profound questions of what it means to be human and share in experiences of love, heartbreak, and finding yourself.
